Environmental Specialization

We help environmental organizations be financially sustainable. 

Whether You Grow, Change, Evolve, or Maintain, We Can Help.

With monumental challenges facing environmental nonprofits, we make sure your finances are not one of them. Our expert accountants work with environmental conservation, activist, advocacy, and education organizations to develop robust financial processes and procedures. We deliver timely and accurate financial statements, help navigate grant management, and support your strategic planning initiatives. We can even help train your team and educate your board. We are here to help you save our ecosystem.

We provide ongoing and interim accounting and Controller/CFO solutions, as well as specialized services, including: 

 

Reporting

We work with you to develop financial reports and visualizations that are meaningful for management and the board. Our Data Visualization team can even build dashboards to monitor progress towards other goals like community engagement and grant tracking.  

 

Grant Management & Accounting

With increased government funding aimed at environmental causes, YPTC's Government Funding Department can assist nonprofit clients with all aspects of finding and applying for federal grants. Diverse funding sources are vital to environmental organizations, and we want to help shepherd you through the entire process. YPTC has 30 years of experience of setting up the necessary internal controls to steward and report on government grants and contracts. 

 

Budgeting & Forecasting

We understand that your organization faces evolving financial challenges depending on the swings of the political and funding environment, and budgeting and forecasting are vital for financial sustainability. We take the burden off you and train your team to become expert budgeters and support them until they are. We know that multi-year and rolling cash forecasts are key tools to help manage your organization now, and in the future, and we partner with you to get them right. 

 

Technology & Software Support

We provide software support and expertise to meet your needs, the needs of your funders, and the needs of your team members. We conduct assessments and provide systems guidance and training, resulting in efficiencies for your teams and additional controls within your organization.
